ThrillTech has announced the launch of ThrillArena, a new tournament platform that reimagines how operators can engage and reward players across casino, live and sports.

ThrillArena introduces opt-in, player-funded side bets into the tournament experience. Rather than requiring operators to fund tournament prize pools, participating players contribute through side bets, creating the potential for upgraded prizes while generating incremental revenue for operators.

Designed as an automated solution across multiple gaming verticals, ThrillArena brings together SlotsArena, LiveArena and SportsArena within one tournament proposition. The platform is built around a 100% player-funded model, with no operator contribution required for prize pools.

At the heart of ThrillArena is ThrillTech’s proprietary points engine, designed to create competitive experiences for both casual players and VIPs. Tournament scoring is powered by a multitude of thoughtfully calibrated factors, creating a dynamic points system that can continuously evolve to shape engaging and balanced competition. Crucially, its core dynamics are designed to keep the competition open, giving players who join later in a tournament genuine opportunity to catch up, climb the rankings and win big.

Operators can run daily and weekly payouts, while monthly seasons provide a longer-term engagement layer designed to reward the most active players.

ThrillArena also introduces Battle Mode, enabling limited player-versus-player challenges in which players can compete with each other, earn points and climb the rankings.

Benjamin Bradtke, co-founder at ThrillTech commented: “ThrillArena represents the evolution of tournaments: turning them from an operator-funded promotional cost into a player-funded engagement and revenue opportunity. By combining side bets, automated tournaments and competitive player-vs-player mechanics across casino, live and sports, we’re giving operators a new way to create bigger moments for players while building a more sustainable tournament model.”

ThrillArena marks the second product in ThrillTech’s expanding side-bet portfolio, joining ThrillPots, the company’s side-bet jackpot engine, as ThrillTech continues to broaden the possibilities of side betting.

ThrillArena will be available to demo for the first time at the SBC Summit in Lisbon this week, where the ThrillTech team will be on hand at stand B331 to showcase its newest side-bet innovation to existing and new customers.
